Best of RVA Missed connections 11/1-11/8

by | Nov 8, 2016 | COMMUNITY

Oh Craigslist missed connecting, sometimes you really surprise me.

Oh Craigslist missed connecting, sometimes you really surprise me. In between the loose morals and calls for sex you get the occasional call out post reverse-sexism that really makes me appreciate the true diversity we have a species.

But no matter how diverse we might be, there’s always the tides that bind – bone’n. Check out the posts below and keep hoping, one day, you’ll make the CL cut and either flutter your eyes and respond or cringe your teeth and hide for a few days.

rbw sexiest man driving a black mini van – w4m (Tri cities)

god I miss you. I wish I was stronger. I wish I could breathe . I wish I could just be . but I can’t . I’m weak and just want to take a deep breathe ..I want to sigh to exhale and feel it. I want my world to not be upside down and sideways. I want to feel normal. I want to feel. I feel like I’m just here nothing more. how could my soulmate not be my soulmate. how can I need someone so bad that wishes I didn’t exist? how did I screw up like this. why can’t I get the point or have the ability to heal. what moron takes a lifetime to bleed out?

me of course.

Did you ever just want to be a missed connection? – m4w (West End)

It’s funny.

You train your body every day, acquire an attractive physique, go to school, become educated, get the perfect job, buy the perfect house, and yet you still look here to see if you are someone’s missed connection because you are to shy to say hi to that girl who smiled at you or you just don’t know what to say or break that ice. So you look here in hopes that maybe they would be looking for you. Each day is like scratching a lottery ticket, hoping maybe that one person you are looking for, is doing the same

Best Interview Ever – m4w (Richmond)

I was hiring. After 3 great phone conversations, we met at Panera. You interviewed for my assistant position. Best interview ever. You were cute, dynamic, fun and intelligent. You also were intimidating. With a hint of inappropriate office games to ensue, I panicked. I hired the guy instead.

Mistake. He’s awful. Or, he was awful. I let him go.

I’ve searched for your resume to contact you. No luck.

Please contact me!!! The job is yours. Or maybe a drink? coffee?

my cute middle eastern neighbor – m4m (west end)

You’re my cute af middle eastern neighbor and I’m crushing hard for you; first time I met you I thought you were like 16, but it turns out you’re like 20; too afraid to ask you out ’cause your brother will probably beat the crap out of me. Hmu with your name in the subject line if you’re interested (since you have a very unique and uncommon name); no need to reply if you are not him, if the name I’m looking for is not the first word in the subject line will delete without reading the body of the e-mail

Look here GURL – w4m (Not here)

Why she got to be a girl? Is she not a woman? Is she a “girl” because you are married and your husband is cheating on you with her? Why you got to be a bitch against other women when it’s your man that’s fucking up? Bitch – grow a pair and drop his ass! If he’s not going to honor the commitment it takes to be with you, then don’t go on CraigsList and threatening people. Find someone that wants that level with you and be with them. There’s many fish out in the sea, don’t blame someone else for the issues within your relationship.

The cutie with the cuff belt – m4w (Carytown Tobacco)

As many times as I’ve been there in the past, I have never seen you before until the other night. I came in a couple days ago and you had burnt your finger. I was already hurting myself and didn’t want to see another in any kinda pain either, so I picked you up something from RiteAid.

I wish I would have said something to you then, but I didn’t, and I couldn’t the next time I saw you either. You’re just too beautiful! If you remember me and you happen to see this, shoot me an email and let me know it’s really you somehow!

hella hot guy who whistled at me – w4m (carytown)

So I am not typically one to post in the personals section of Craigslist, but you were, as mentioned, hella hot, and I have a lot of free time. I was walking around Carytown, like kinda near the Kroger, and you drove past me with your windows down and whistled at me. I’m pretty sure you had a beard and a beanie and sunglasses and fairly nice biceps, and I guess it’s possible that underneath the beard and the beanie and the sunglasses you could potentially be less hot, but I’m willing to take that risk. I think you drove past me again by coincidence (or was it?) near the post office. Anyway, if by some chance the universe compels you to peruse the missed connections page (or maybe you check it frequently), we should see if we have anything in common other than finding each other attractive.

I can never remember what I ate for breakfast, much less what some sexy stranger wore two days ago. But if you by chance do, tell me what I looked like? Ooh and tell me the color and make/model of your car.
